The 14th annual conference of the Society for Higher Education Research (Gesellschaft für Hochschulforschung) takes place at Otto-von-Guericke-University in Magdeburg from 20th to 22nd March 2019.

The conference focusses on the interactions between social transformation processes and the developmental lines of the science system. For example, digitization as a trending topic can be considered as the result as well as the engine of technological and social innovation. With this conference we wish to contribute to the discussion about the connections between science and society.

The conference aims at exploring ways for the science system to approach the changing societal conditions for knowledge production and the new demands they hold for the science system‘s practices.
